A first birthday {pictures}

Hello everyone!
First of all THANK YOU for all the nice Birthday wishes. They made the special day even more awesome.
I told you that we hoped to celebrate in the park. We had beautiful weather the whole week and on Sunday… unfortunately on Saturday morning it was freezing, windy and raining. So we stayed in. We still had tons of fun and I was so proud of my cake.
I am sure you saw lots of beautiful rainbow cakes in the web (here for example) and I decided to try my luck as well.
I made a very simple cake base (flour, eggs, sugar, oil and sparkling water) and added colours. Lots of colours, really…if you want to achieve very bright colours, you will need LOTS of food colouring.
One after one. Baked. Cooled.
Buttercream and layering. Cake, cream, cake, cream…. and cream all around.
And this is how the cake looked like and to my big happiness, people were surprised and LOVED it.
The cups are hand decorated by hubby by the way…

I made another “natural” cake with a silicone train shaped cake mould. (left picture above)
The little cakes or tains were yummy but I had to tell people that it should be a train :)

Here you see our new car collection which exploded during the day…

{I will post what we have KleinA for his birthday soon}

And lots of balloons.
The last pic looks a bit sad isn’t… after diner his big sister decided to push her brother around a bit…in his highchair. She placed him here and brought all the balloons.
And he loved his balloons. Daddy organised them when I was out with the kids and when we came home you should have seen his face… his eyes sparkling and so so HAPPY.
So he was sitting there with his balloons, pulling the loops…

Do you have a birthday party coming up soon?
Will you have a themed party?
KleinR’s birthday is in June, not that far away….
